| Description of the problem | Tipm needed to be replaced at my cost even though this is been a problem in other dodge vehicles. The fuel pump relay was not working the horn started going off for no reason and there were starting issues, with car eventually stalling while moving. It was over $1200 to fix. Then, six months later the car is still not starting accurately and was fixed at my cost. A ground wire was put in from the battery to the transmission. I wastold this was not part of the tipm issue but they did not know what was causing it. Dodges problem-solving database showed that this problem was fixed in other dodges with ground wire. This repair was at my cost. Lastly, the valves and gaskets as part of the powertrain system have been replaced twice in less than two years. They are under warranty and the repair was no cost to me, but they've had to be replaced twice. |
